there's still the question why turrets dont cost supplies. and of course how angry the poor little guy must be when an observer hides right above his head.

Turrets don't cost supply because of the rotation - the real reason for this is the rotisserie down below. So if anything, turrets should provide supply, 'cause I bet you could make a lot of chicken in something that big.

hey, lets stop discussing this. it all has its reasons. it's not like broodwar is flawed in any way, everything is perfectly logical. IT'S NOT FLAWED SO LETS NOT DISCUSS IT, ITS JUST OVER OUR HEADS..

I came to my conclusion. The person inside the turret; robot, or a dummy.

Discoveries like this make me realize just how old SC's graphics are. I didn't even know there was a little man riding on the Vulture until about a year ago. I thought the graphics were pretty cool, but when you start to notice stuff like little men hiding everywhere, you start to realize some of the graphics are pretty cheesy haha.

First, to get him to fire at an obba, just tell the turrent to maually fire at another target, even a tank will do.

Second, I noted the guy in there about two years ago. You can see him IN THE TURRET ITSELF on the screen, not just in the little hp chart. He seem to be wearing a device like an scv, but molded into the launchers. Its cute, but its sorta like my hobby of trying to find the tiny faces of the zerg.
I found that Wgtour is alot like putting your nuts in a vice, except you probably dont come back for more after the vice thing.

Heheheh. They should make the turret point and fire missiles, but the missiles fall short. Then a little speech bubble appears from the turret: "Shit."
